General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (GA-EMS) Gulftronic™ electrostatic separators remove all FCC catalyst fines from slurry oil, providing refineries with more options to market and increase revenue from upgraded clarified oil products. With over 50 systems operating worldwide, GA-EMS has been helping customers increase revenue and reduce environmental waste for more than 35 years. The Gulftronic Difference GA-EMS' unique technology uses an electrostatic process to polarize, capture and remove all catalyst fines (down to the submicron level), that resist separation by conventional mechanical filtration processes. Gulftronic Electrostatic Separators are impervious to fouling by asphaltenes and coke particles. The resulting clarified oil produces feedstock for various marketable products, including carbon black, needle coke, fuel oil, and electrode pitch. The system also eliminates sedimentation of catalyst fines as hazardous sludge from refinery storage tanks, reducing settling tank waste collection and disposal. The Gulftronic difference results in higher per barrel returns, more efficient slurry oil filtration, less downstream contamination, greater throughput, and significantly Increases the value of feedstocks produced from decant oil. Additional Features Performance guaranteed certified below 100 ppm clarity Field-proven reliability Designed for continuous operation Improves per-barrel returns from FCCRFCC, hydrocracking Compact, preassembled unit eliminates need for on-site construction Built to ASME standards

General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (GA-EMS) industrial Supercritical Water Oxidation (iSCWO) technology is successfully treating a broad range of pumpable hazardous and non-hazardous waste, with a 99.99% destruction removal efficiency. iSCWO provides a safe, cost effective, and environmentally sound solution to replace alternative technologies that have high emission rates, post treatment requirements, and substantial installation and operation costs. Safe, effective destruction of Expired or obsolete pesticides, fertilizers and fungicides Contaminated water (waste water clean up) Expired or obsolete paints andor petroleum products Petroleum waste streams Organic cleaning solutions Energetic material (explosives or propellant) Unique material not suitable for normal transportation or disposal Fixed and Transportable Solutions In addition to offering fixed site solutions, GA-EMS provides the only flexible, transportable iSCWO system available today to facilitate "generate and destroy on-site" capabilities. The modular design allows for rapid set-up and start of process operations. A single three gallons per minute (3 GPM) transportable system consists of two compact equipment skids housed inside two shipping containers to create a convenient, cost effective platform for multiple site waste destruction when and where it is needed. Parallel, redundant system designs are available for both fixed and transportable systems to increase throughput and improve efficiency.

General Atomics (GA) is a pioneer in the research and development of innovative permanent magnets and linear motors to create clean, fast and efficient transportation solutions. GA's passive maglev system uses permanent magnetics on vehicles and linear synchronous motors on guideways to levitate and propel vehicles. Maglev systems do not require electric motors, engines, or fuel, and have no moving parts on the vehicle. The result is a clean, light-weight vehicle design that eliminates engine and wheel noise, and harmful emissions. By using permanent magnets for levitation, any requirement for overhead powerlines or electric third rails is eliminated, helping improve safety and environmental aesthetics. GA was the first in the United States to build a full scale working maglev system, which operates on a 400-foot test track in San Diego, California. GA's Electromagnetic Systems Group (GA-EMS) provides design, prototyping and manufacturing capabilities for the Maglev system permanent magnets and linear motors. GA-EMS manufacturing offers the depth of experience and sophisticated machining, winding, milling, assembly, and test equipment for the production of these highly specialized components.

GA's TRIGA (Training, Research, Isotopes, General Atomics) reactor is the most widely used non-power nuclear reactor in the world. GA has installed 66 TRIGA reactors at universities, government and industrial laboratories, and medical centers in 24 countries. GA's reactors are used in many diverse applications, including production of radioisotopes for medicine and industry, treatment of tumors, nondestructive testing, basic research on the properties of matter, and for education and training. These reactors operate at thermal power levels from less than 0.1 to 16 megawatts, and are pulsed to 22, 000 megawatts. The high power pulsing is possible due to the unique properties of GA's uranium-zirconium hydride fuel, which provides unrivaled safety characteristics. The safety features of this fuel also permit flexibility in siting, with minimal environmental effects. TRIGA International, a joint venture company with CERCA of France, manufactures and sells TRIGA fuel to research reactors.
